Connectivity

Connectivity is the ability for users and devices to link with other users and devices to share and access business applications and data. A wired or wireless network provides this connectivity. The network in your office is known as a local area network. Connecting two or more locations together is known as a wide area network.

The type of connectivity implemented and thus its performance, reliability and operational costs will depend on various factors:

Communication media: wired or wireless technologies

Communication protocols: Ethernet, internet, etc.

Scale: personal area network, local area network, storage area network, backbone network, wide area network and virtual private network

Your security needs will also play a key factor in the choice of solution and equipment – which will increase as access to your business data goes from internal access in the local office, to remote working and third-party access.
